Private Guardians Supplemental Petition To Reinstate Wardship Packet {CCJP 0202}

CCJP 0202 - PRIVATE GUARDIAN’S PRO SE SUPPLEMENTAL PETITION TO REINSTATE WARDSHIP. This form is used in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, when a private guardian wishes to reopen a previously closed juvenile case and request the court to reinstate wardship over a minor and return legal guardianship to the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS). The form is intended for use only in cases where the court had previously closed the case after appointing the private guardian. It provides a structured process for the guardian—who is representing themselves without an attorney—to explain the circumstances that led to the need for reinstating wardship. The petitioner must detail the child’s history under DCFS care, the date guardianship transferred, and the specific problems encountered since being granted private guardianship. Supporting documents include the Notice of Motion, which informs all parties of the court date, and a Certificate of Service, which confirms that all parties were notified. These documents must be properly completed, filed with the Clerk’s Office, and served on all involved parties. www.FormsWorkflow.com
